I saw that too. Interesting! But to me, the last line of that article is significant.
"However, it is not clear why the pilot of the Russian plane took the decision to abort the landing." Strange move for some ordinary landing.

I appreciate everyone's comments.

ETA: The explanation could be what Al Denelsbeck said: "but pilots know to abort the landing in such circumstances - had the Aerolineas plane halted mid-runway there would be no way to avoid it once a certain amount of airspeed had been shed." UTair pilot was thinking worst case scenario?

If you're interested in the breed, you may be able to learn that by following Venus' Faceook page and watching for user questions on that topic. I looked at their "About" page and skimmed a little down the timeline page and found no mention of it, though the administrators said a new About page was coming soon.

I did read that the Gund stuffed animal company (where a lot of my childhood toys came from) is making a Venus toy. Now that's an animal getting special attention!
